  1. Mix the Ingredients

    In a medium bowl, combine the instant coffee, sugar, and hot water.

    Ensure the water is hot to help dissolve the coffee and sugar quickly.

  2. Whip to Create Foam

    Use an electric whisk to beat the mixture until it becomes frothy and thick.

    You can use a hand whisk, but it will take longer.

    For an iced version, add a few ice cubes to the cold milk.

  4. Add the Foam

    With a spoon, gently drop the coffee foam over the milk.

    Use the back of the spoon to spread the foam evenly.

  5. Finish with a Touch

    Sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon over the foam for an aromatic touch.

    For extra flavor, add a drizzle of maple syrup.
